Chapter 206 Meng Family Meeting
After returning upstairs and washing up, Meng Yitong began to talk to Qin Zhuoran about her plans.
"I really don't believe that my father has no talent for business."
"Business in that era was definitely much easier than it is now. Even if you didn't make a lot of money, you wouldn't lose money either..."
Meng Yitong talked for a long time but didn't hear Qin Zhuoran's response. When she turned around, she saw that Qin Zhuoran had fallen into a deep sleep.
Meng Yitong suddenly remembered at this time that Qin Zhuoran seemed to have been working overtime until very late these two days.
As soon as I had time today, I came to pick myself up.
When Meng Yitong thought of this, she couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.
Reaching out and touching Qin Zhuoran's sleeping face, Meng Yitong directly picked up the remote control and turned off the light.
Lying in Qin Zhuoran's arms, listening to the rhythm of his heartbeat, Meng Yitong fell into a deep sleep after a while.
The next morning, Meng Yitong received a call from Grandpa Meng as soon as she got up.
Meng Yitong had long expected that Grandpa Meng would call her back to the Meng family.
After hanging up the phone, Meng Yitong ate breakfast leisurely.
Then he drove to Meng's house.
If it weren't for Qin's father's reminder yesterday, Meng Yitong might not have bought into Grandpa Meng's advice.
Maybe he just rejected the matter when he answered the phone.
But because she now had other ideas in her mind, Meng Yitong was happy to pretend to be nice to Grandpa Meng.
After arriving at the Meng family, as soon as Meng Yitong entered the door, she saw Grandpa Meng preparing for a three-court trial.
Meng Yitong was not worried at all when she saw this.
After greeting Grandpa Meng, he ignored his cold face and found a seat next to Mother Meng and sat down.
Seeing the relaxed look on Meng Yitong's face, Aunt Meng, who had been feeling upset all night, suddenly lost her composure.
"Yiyi, after your grandfather knew what you did last night, he lost his appetite for breakfast. As his granddaughter, shouldn't you explain it to him?"
After Second Aunt Meng finished speaking, she stared at Meng Yitong with a serious expression, as if she would never let her go if she didn't explain clearly today.
Before Meng Yitong could say anything, her mother Meng became unhappy.
"What do you mean by what Yi Yi did last night? What did Yi Yi do last night?"
"Did she stop bidding, or what?"
"If Yi Yi hadn't bid the highest price yesterday, how much would you have gotten for those tattered books and papers you prepared?"
"If Yi Yi hadn't helped you, you would have organized a charity auction with so much vigour and only raised tens of millions of dollars, which would have been a joke..."
When Second Aunt Meng heard that Mother Meng was not in agreement with her, she started to make random accusations and immediately scolded her with a dark face, "I'm talking about what Yi Yi said in front of the guests yesterday!"
"What's wrong with what Yi Yi said? Didn't you ask her to say those words?"
"When did I let her say those things?"
"Which of Yi Yi's two speeches wasn't ordered by you? The first time you could say it was due to procedural reasons, but the second time, you forced the microphone into Yi Yi's hands, right?"
“I…I…”
Aunt Meng was speechless for a moment because of what Meng's mother said.
Seeing this, Su Jinyu immediately retorted: "Mom originally just hoped that Yi Tong could say something encouraging at this time, who would have thought that she would be so thoughtful."
"I'm sorry, no one taught me how to say those polite words since I was a child."
"I have always been very pragmatic. Judging from everyone's reactions yesterday, the guests were obviously very satisfied with the result."
“So I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what I did.”
Meng Yitong said this with an innocent look on her face.
When Mother Meng saw her daughter's look, she knew that she came prepared today.
Mother Meng, who was angry just now, has now completely calmed down.
"You are just quibbling. Don't you know how much burden your words have brought to the Meng family?"
Su Jinyu rebuked in a stern but cowardly manner.
In Su Jinyu's opinion, what Meng Yitong just said was all sophistry.
Although she knew her daughter had made up her mind, Meng's mother still couldn't accept someone talking to her daughter like that.
Without thinking too much, my mother scolded me directly: "Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to shout here? Do you have the right to interrupt when the elders are talking?"
Su Jinyu, who was reprimanded in public for the first time, couldn't help but turn pale.
Just when Su Jinyu felt at a loss, her hand was held by the person next to her.
Feeling the warmth coming from his palm, Su Jinyu immediately regained his strength.
Meng Yuansi held his wife's hand with one hand, looked directly at Mother Meng and said, "Aunt, Jinyu is my wife, she is a part of this family."
"In the past few years, Jinyu has not only given birth to children for our Meng family, but also helped my mother with housework and made a lot of contributions to our Meng family."
"I hope my aunt can learn to respect my wife in the future."
Meng Yuansi's expression was very serious.
There was also a warning in his words.
If someone else heard what he said, they might have stopped while they were ahead.
It’s a pity that the person who heard his words was Mother Meng.
In the past, Mother Meng might have tolerated it once, but ever since her daughter was accidentally injured, Mother Meng felt that these people in the Meng family had no bottom line.
The more you give in, the more they push.
Since she wasn't planning on getting anything from the Meng family anyway, Mother Meng just completely ignored it.
Hearing Meng Yuansi speak up for his wife, Mother Meng retorted mercilessly: "Giving birth to children? Where's your daughter? Why don't I see any!"
"Still doing housework?"
"There are so many housekeepers and servants at home! Is she really needed to take care of everything?"
"Besides! Is there anyone who doesn't want to do the housework? I also want to do some housework. Is your mother willing to give up this task?"
"Alright! Shut up!"
Mr. Meng, who had wanted to sit back and relax, could no longer sit still.
This eldest son's wife has been getting more and more outrageous over the years.
There's no way around her mouth. If she keeps talking, today's family meeting will be completely doomed to fail.
